What is it about?
Hosted by Marie Bordet, painter and Meggane Cappello, storyteller, Histoire de mémoires - Story of memories invites you to find your memories through all your archives (photos, articles, letters, drawings...) and to gather them to create a journal of your life, called Ramassis. You will be invited to creative writing workshops, coffee painting sessions and to make your journal in a friendly atmosphere!
Beyond this collection of documents, Histoire de mémoires highlights the importance of your personal history and its transmission to new generations by placing you as mentors holding a rich and fascinating memorial heritage.


"I didn't know what to expect when I embarked on the "Histoire de mémoires" project. At first, I was a little worried that I wouldn't have enough material to fill the notebook. But I quickly realized that it was quite the opposite.
As the program progressed, my interest grew. I found myself collecting all the photos and mementos that had been buried in my drawers for nearly 50 years. Phew, what wonderful memories! It was as if I had relived my childhood and youth. A priceless treasure!
This project made me realize the importance of extended family. Now, there's work to be done to maintain this beautiful tradition.
A simple thank you is not enough to express my gratitude to you, Marie and Meggane. You are gems! Your kindness and knowledge made me love the sessions. You have the ability to put people at ease with your wonderful personality.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

A portrait for
each story
To highlight the participants, I made their portraits out of coffee. Each of them is encircled by a thin line of gold leaf, illuminating the faces of these nine women.
The presentation of these paintings during our session on February 3, 2025 was an emotional moment that I will not forget...
